I'm confused, because I created this on my client only:
> /opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/boo.json:
> { "boo": "boo222" }
>
> And added this to me module:
> notify { "boo is ${boo}": }
>
> And received:
> Notice: boo is boo222
>
> Doesn't that demonstrate that files in facts.d/boo.json are loaded read in
> on the agent side? There is no "boo" variable defined anywhere on the
> master side.

Facts are read on the agent side and, when used with `puppet agent`,
submitted to the master. The master can also distribute facts from the
master to the agents, and they are still processed before the agent's
catalog is compiled. When you use `puppet apply`, the master of course
cannot distribute it, but the facts are still parsed before the agent
compilation, which is why `$boo` had a value.
